It is my turn on the VLVS! blog today and I have made an art journal ! There are quite a few photos, so go have yourself a coffee and sit down and relax !
Here's the finished project.
Here is how I made this :
I started with a blank page in my journal and two colours of Distress Inks with a blending tool.
This was how it looked when I was done.
Next I took a stencil and a spray bottle of water .....
and got this result; neat isn't it?
I then used a some stamps, inks and some embossing powder too, to stamp the background..
This was the result. I stamps the 'tape X' with white ink but I could hardly see it, that is why I decided to heat emboss them with white embossing powder. It looks a bit rough but I quite liked that and left it that way...
I then stamped the main image with black Archival ink...
I splattered some white ink on the page.... and tried to get some of the colour out of the girls face and arms and also her umbrella with a water brush; wetting it and dabbing it off. It didn't work very well. I think it is the paper in this journal...
Next I stamped the sentiment twice....
the plan was to cut it apart and use the pieces, which is what I did...
Here's another look at the finished project...
I used the following stamps:
Thanks for stopping by today !
Love how you've used the brick stencil, fab results xx
